Le Jazz Hot from Victor/Victoria is featured in Duets, the fourth episode of Season Two. It is sung by Kurt.

The theme of the song was to have a "duet" with himself by performing both the male and female parts of the original song. Santana questioned him before he performed the song, how he can do a duet by himself, as it would be "vocal masturbation." MikeTina, and the Cheerios (without Santana), acted as the background dancers. The song is sung as a result of Kurt terminating his original duet with Sam after Burt and Finn put him under pressure.

Kurt:
'Bout twenty years ago way down in New Orleans
A group of fellers found a new kind of music
And they decided to call it Jazz

No other sound has what this music has
Before they knew it, it was whizzing 'round the world
The world was ready for a blue kind of music
And now they play it from Steamboat Springs to La Paz

Oh baby
Won't you play me Le Jazz Hot
Maybe, and don't ever let it end
I tell ya friend, it's really somethin' to hear
I can't sit still when there's that rhythm near me

Also, baby, Le Jazz Hot
Maybe, what's holdin' my soul together
Don't know whether it's mornin' or night
Only know it's soundin' right

So come on in
And play me Le Jazz Hot
Baby, cause I love my jazz hot

Before they knew it, it was whizzing 'round the world
The world was ready for a blue kind of music
And now they play it from Steamboat Springs to La Paz

When you play me Le Jazz Hot
Baby, you're holdin' my soul together
Don't know whether it's mornin' or night
Only know it's soundin' right

So come on in and play me Le Jazz Hot
Baby, cause I love my jazz hot

Le Jazz Hot
Le Jazz Hot
